An old-school gem of a .22 Something to pass on to your own grandkids one day.
The pump action Winchesters are terrific little 22 rifles, among my favorite rimfire shooters. Those that are take down models, such as your 61, are very handy. They are lightweight & can easily be thrown in a pack. They are also quite accurate rifles.

Has some info that may be of value to you.
I have one - a friend of my dad gave it to him for me when I was born (a long time ago!). Lots of great memories learning to shoot with it on my dad's family farm in Virginia. I will never sell it and with give it to my son in the will.
